What these two are about together

Worth and what will not be made acceptable, which the tradition treats as the central Lilith pairing and also the one most often written about badly.

What a conjunction does

A conjunction is the tightest relationship in a chart: two planets sitting at effectively the same point in the zodiac, rising, setting and moving together. The tradition does not read it as good or bad on its own. It reads it as fusion. Whatever the two planets each govern stops being two separate concerns and starts being one, and it is often the placement a person is least able to see in themselves, because there is no distance from which to look at it.

How it reads

Desire and refusal are one. Associated with attraction that does not follow the expected shape, and read as a matter of taste rather than of morals.

In practice

Strongest of the five, and the most dependent on which two bodies are involved. A conjunction of two comfortable planets is usually experienced as a natural talent; a conjunction of two difficult ones is usually experienced as a single unavoidable subject that keeps coming round.

What to watch for

The absence of separation. Whatever these two do, they do at once, which makes it hard to tell which of the two is driving.
